Description Named for the location in which this beautiful lady is located.

This is a 1941 Chev originally owned by Charley Orchard. It has a 216 inline 6-cylinder engine with a 3-speed transmission.

"So bye-bye, miss American pie.
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die." "
(Don McLean)

I don't know. It does not make a lot of sense to me. I am not complaining, but I am curious. And I hardy ever get curious about anything.

Hi, of course, I also think that this is an extraordinary photo.
One of my hobbies is drawing and so I decided to try myself at this one. It wasn't easy but it's finished now. It's not perfect, put I'm quite content about it.
Now, I'm not really shure about copyright law and so on, so I decided to simply ask you, if you would allow me to post my drawing here on DA or if I have to burn it immediately. Of course I would give credits to you and put links to your profile (maybe an avatar link) and the photo in the artist's comment, or just say me what you want.
Please be sure that I won't make any profit with the drawing and don't post it anywhere else. If you don't answer, I'll see this as a "No".
Thanking you in anticipation and greetings, Alex

Hi Alex,

thanks for writing.

In Canada, copyright law is very specific and covered by conventions with other countries including Germany. But I do not think you need be concerned about it, as long as you do not sell any copies of the work. (The image has been taken without permission a number of times and posted on various sites. I have always followed up and had it removed).

I would of course like to see what you have done, and I would also like to make a link to it on the original. So if you post it here, please let me know and make a link to me. I will in turn make a link back to yourself, which may even help you to get more people into your gallery.

thanks

thanks Gingerlee,

this image has become the flagship of the collection now. It will show for a number of months next year. I anticipate that the shows will keep me busy for most of that year and perhaps into 2010.

WayneBenedet In reply to PoireGourmande [2008-10-12 00:47:31 +0000 UTC]

thank you Emilie,

this is very kind of you. This picture has become quite known where I live and around the world. It is the feature image for a book and a showing of pictures called "An Old Ride". A portion of this collection will be shown locally next month, and the entire collection on march 2009. Unfortunately, this is why a water mark has had to be placed on the images, so that their integrity will be protected.

Thanks again for highlighting this image and my work. I appreciate it.
